Everything Vhostly does
The essentials are free for personal use. Pro adds more, and every install includes it for 14 days.
A local domain for every project
Point a .test domain at a folder or a dev server and switch it on or off in one click.
Switch PHP in one click
Choose the version Apache loads and the one your terminal uses, separately.
HTTPS your browser trusts
Issue a trusted local certificate for any site, without the openssl commands.
Apache under control
Restart Apache, test its config and turn modules on without opening a file.
See what your Mac is missing
Health checks your whole setup and shows the exact command for anything it can fix.
Undo any change
Your config is backed up before every change, and any copy restores in a click.
Open sites on your phonePro
Share a site over Wi-Fi with a QR code, or create a temporary public link.
See what is using a portPro
Find what is listening where, and stop it when it is in the way.
Run your databasesPro
Start and stop MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis and other Homebrew services from one list.
Read logs without tailPro
Open and filter Apache and site logs right in the app.
And much more
Hosts file in sync
/etc/hosts follows your sites, so you never edit it by hand.
Proxy sites
Put a real domain and HTTPS in front of a dev server, WebSockets included.
Start commandsPro
Run npm run dev when a proxy site turns on, and stop it when it turns off.
Force HTTPSPro
Redirect a site from http to https with one switch.
Unlimited sitesPro
Free covers five sites. Pro has no limit.
Guided setup
A step-by-step wizard shows each command before it runs.
Uses your Homebrew

Ordinary config files
Your sites live in Apache's own config and keep running after you quit.
Security notices
Critical PHP notices appear in the app and on the news page.
Notifications
Get a macOS notification when a change finishes.
No account
Nothing to sign up for. Usage reporting can be turned off in Settings.
Made for Apple silicon
